WIP Wednesday

I seem to be managing one blog post a week at the minute, so here I am again for WIP Wednesday. I have made some progress on my WIPS and have a few finishes to show.

Finishes:

This weekend was dedicated to making bags 3 (the Ruby bag) & 7 (241 tote) in my Mad old bag challenge. I have a whole post planned (including a million pictures) for theses two, so this is all I will show today.

I finally got all of the supplies I needed for making the name tag for the Fat quarterly retreat swap.

I am pretty terrible at hand sewing and embroidery is pretty much beyond me, so I decided that stamping my partners name onto the fabric was the way to go. I messed around with a few blocks in EQ7 and decided on the star, rainbow points and steel linen.

I may have to pimp my work ID with some MM!

It's a secret swap, no name shown here yet.

I added a lanyard as I am not a big fan of having a huge label pinned to my clothes, but I will be sending a pin in case my partner prefers that option.

I love this little swap, is there anyway someone could make me one with my daughter's name on it so she could wear it as a nametag? She hates stickers and everywhere we go they're always trying to put a name badge on and its like pulling teeth to get her to put it on.
